    Program for tracking temps? Also...

    I've been creeping these forums for the last couple of weeks. Love them! especially the "Post your gaming setup!" forum. OT Everyone references the temps they get from their CPU/GPU and inside their case. What do you use to get those numbers? Is it something you find in Windows, or a separate program? Also, I see a lot of dual monitor setups. Any of you have any suggestions for a dual monitor desk mount that can actually hold a 25lb 27" screen? The ASUS PB278Q is one heavy sucker. I can't wait to get back stateside so i can build my computer and post some pics of the setup.

    for GPU I use MSI Afterburner and for CPU I use Core Temp 1.0

    I use AIDA64 to check my temps usually, but realtemp is highly recommended or speccy as good free ones to use.

    Don't quote me on this but I believe some work better on AMD than others, if it's for the PC in your sig

    Since my GPU is from EVGA, I use EVGA Precision X both to monitor the temps and make a more aggressive fan curve. For my CPU I use RealTempGT.
